Other Archaeology(There is a General Election going on in the UK at the moment!) A full transcript of the hustings held on 14 March with Labour, Conservative and Liberal Democrat politicians presenting their policies on the historic environment is now available on the CBA's web siteembedded within the transcript text are photographs of the occasion and movie clips (in Quicktime format) of key statements made by the politicians
the meeting, organised by the Historic Environment Forum, heard presentations from the Rt Hon Alan Howarth CBE, Minister for the Arts (Labour Party), the Rt Hon Peter Ainsworth MP and Lord Renfrew of Kaimsthorn (Conservative Party) and Lord Redesdale (Liberal Democrats)
Alan Howarth used the meeting to announce that the Government would accede to the 1970 UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property (and there is a video clip of this announcement within the web page)
